You live in a fantasy world Romy. Not one of those items could have evolved into the products you now use without the company responsible being able to develop the technology & materials to allow it to happen. They wouldn't even exist. That sort of development costs money and it has to be earnt somehow. Even your power amplifiers and loudspeakers have evolved from the commercial activities of companies like Lamm, Vitavox, Fane, and probably Avant Gard. Your new tweeters wouldn't have happened unless RAAL had a business that allowed him the resources to develop them. You might regard manufacture and commerce with disdain but if it weren't for them you'd be walking everywhere or perhaps riding in a cart pulled by a horse. Might not be a bad thing!

I live in the world in which I believe. The difference between my world and the world of any typical person with awareness screwed but the industry narrow-mindedness is that I do not recognize a messianic role of products and believe that products (as much as any companies) are in fact irrelevant. It is you who believes (or fell gainful to believe) that if a company would not exist then would not be a Results but I see the things reversely. I know where my “fantasies” lead me and I see into witch crap the product-centric vision got turned into. Buy the last TAS for instance and read the CES report: hundreds companies/products and no single author-son-of-a-bitch is able to say anything about Sound but only to shovel the stupid companies/products like a deck of playing cards….

I know that you would fell differ and it is fine. Since this conversation is too tangential for the subject of the new Vitavox S2 production then let to agree to desagree on it. Even in context of Mike’s Vitavox (with all my wish him to succeed) do not give a damn how successful he will be. A definition of a busses “doing well” means ONLY the state of the business’ accounting books nothing else. If you were a little more evolved on the subjects of relationship between the true qualities of sound and the sales-ability of audio products then … you were a little more comprehensive in this dissuasion. Let me juts leave you with a quote that was given to me a few years ago by a manufacture of a very successfully and very celebrated audio product. He said that in the format in which your audio industry exists today it is imposable for a manufacture (including his own company) to do any interesting sounding products. He said: “the real good sound does not sell to public” and therefore whatever he and others (if they know what they do) put out there is juts the consumer-minded crap to keep the books out of red….
